Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 138
Chapter 138 Confess The Truth
Yun Xiao raised the corners of her lips, but she was not happy that she had defeated Lan Shuya. She had just occupied an advantage that Lan Shuya did not know about, so she was able to let go of her guard.
However, Yun Xiao was already able to confirm that Lan Shuya was the murderer.
She remembered the scene of Lan Shuya lying in Zhou Jingyan’s arms in her previous life, watching him kick her child to death with cold eyes. Not only did she not plead for mercy, she even added fuel to the fire!
Therefore, Yun Xiao had no sympathy for Lan Shuya at all.
Duan Sizheng also reacted from Yun Xiao’s words. He looked at Lan Shuya with a faint look of displeasure. “Miss Lan, please explain the question that Fourth Young Lady had just asked.”
Of course, at this moment, Duan Sizheng also had some doubts about Lan Shuya.
At this moment, Lan Shuya also knew that if she could not explain clearly what was waiting for her, she faintly frown and finally sighed. She then said, “Sir, please take a good look. I have no idea what is going on here. If my cousin asks me, I will directly answer.”
“Oh? Does Miss Lan mean that the 200,000 silver taels are not on you at this time?” Duan Sizheng’s attitude towards Lan Shuya had changed greatly.
Lan Shuya felt a chill in her heart. At this moment, she hated Yun Xiao very much. Yun Xiao had already died tonight, but she did not die. She even appeared in front of her. Not only that, Lan Shuya seemed to have come here specifically to tear down her own platform.
The corner of her eyes turned to look at Yun Xiao. She suddenly remembered the aura that had appeared on Yun Xiao’s body when she was in the Yun Clan. At this moment, Yun Xiao had this aura on her body again. This caused Lan Shuya’s heart to feel slightly more uneasy.
She calmed down slightly and her gaze narrowed. “Yes, the banknote is indeed on me right now. However, just because the banknote is on me does not mean that I am the murderer.”
At this moment, Lan Shuya was in a dilemma. No matter what, the two hundred thousand taels of silver were all on her. Yun Xiao had previously stated that the silver was for Yun Yang. No matter what, Yun Xiao had labeled herself Yun Yang’s name this time. No matter how much she tried, her reputation had already been ruined.
This was because everyone would only believe that they had secretly accepted the Yun Clan’s eldest young master’s gift.
Even Lan Shuya had to admit that Yun Xiao’s move was indeed quite clever!
“Then Miss Lan, explain why the banknote is still with you?” At this moment, Duan Si felt that this case was becoming more and more interesting.
Lan Shuya immediately typed a draft in her heart. Seeing everyone staring at him, She comforted herself and calmed herself down, She glanced at Yu Tan. At this moment, he had to sacrifice Yu Tan’s reputation to protect himself. “It’s all my fault. I wanted to embezzle the 200,000 taels of silver myself. However, my maidservant Yu Tan and Eldest Young Master Yun Yang have known each other for a long time and have feelings of affection for Eldest Young Master. Since I know about this and have been loyal to me, I want to deduct the 200,000 taels of silver for Yu Tan’s dowry.”
Anyway, Yun Yang was already dead. Even if he poured sewage on his body, Yun Yang couldn’t do anything to him.
Yu Tan did not expect her family’s girl to say this. Her expression was terrified, and her gaze suddenly froze. She looked at her own family’s girl in a daze, her mouth opening and closing, “Young lady, I didn’t.”
However, before Yu Tan could finish speaking, Lan Shuya immediately said, “Yu Tan, you don’t have to be embarrassed. Although there are many people here, these people are from the Yun Clan. What are you afraid of?” She looked threateningly at Yu Tan. If she didn’t sacrifice Yu Tan, then her reputation would be completely gone.
Yu Tan grew up with Lan Shuya and had served in front of her for so long. Naturally, she was very familiar with Lan Shuya’s every move. When she saw this, she immediately understood that her family’s girl was prepared to sacrifice herself to protect her.
However, although Yu Tan’s heart was sad now, she could only accept Lan Shuya’s kindness.
She immediately knelt down, He clicked his head in the direction of Duan Sizheng, ‘”Yes, this is all my fault. This servant is money-minded. I encouraged the girl to deduct the money. This servant and the eldest young master have known each other for a long time. Every time I go to the Yun Clan, I would take advantage of this to meet the eldest young master. This servant told the eldest young master that this servant was born to the eldest young master and died the ghost of the eldest young master. Now, I will pay for the life of the eldest young master.”
“You’re lying!” Madam Sun did not wait for her to finish speaking before she shouted out. Her son had just died, and this woman was going to charge her son with giving and receiving private gifts.
Yu Tan looked at Madam Sun in fear. When she saw the killing intent in Madam Sun’s eyes, she was shocked. She closed her eyes and stood up when she opened them again. Her expression was firm as she crashed into the pillar on the other side. Her eyes were filled with determination.
Unfortunately, there was no warmth in Yun Xiao’s eyes at this moment. When Yu Tan collided with her, Chun Lan, who had been instructed to stare at Lan Shuya and Yu Tan, quickly walked forward and hugged Yu Tan’s body. Therefore, although Yu Tan was still injured, her injuries were not serious.
Yu Tan’s eyes were tightly closed. She looked at Lan Shuya apologetically, her gaze carrying a deathly silence. She didn’t expect that even if she wanted to die, she wouldn’t be able to.
Lan Shuya originally thought that after Yu Tan died, she would be able to put everything on Yu Tan to protect her innocence. However, she did not expect that Chun Lan would hold her back. She looked at Chun Lan with hatred. It was because of this woman that she was unable to fulfill her wish. Of course, the culprit of all this was Yun Xiao!
But now, she had no choice but to act out the play first!
She immediately rushed over and hugged Yu Tan tightly before saying, “Yu Tan, what kind of fool are you making!”
After she finished her sentence, she whispered to Yu Tan in a corner that no one noticed, “Take this charge and I will take good care of your family.”
Yu Tan’s expression was slightly stunned. Very quickly, a bitter smile appeared in her eyes. She broke free from her embrace and knelt down in front of Duan Sizheng again. “This matter was caused by this servant. I hope that Sir will not blame our girl.”
Lan Shuya looked at all of this and only cried, a heartbroken scene.
On the other side, Yun Xiao whispered, “Cousin, how can I remember that when I was at the Xiangguo Temple, you and your elder brother were already privately engaged for life?”
He had decided to spend his entire life with someone else, but now he was pushing it onto someone else. No matter how they looked at it, everyone felt that something was wrong with this matter.
When Lan Shuya heard this, she had the intention to kill Yun Xiao. She sighed and said, “Cousin, why are you slandering me like this?”
After she finished speaking, she looked at Yun Yao who was at the side again, deeply afraid that Yun Yao would say such words at this time. Thinking of this, she immediately gave Chun Lin a look.
When Chun Lin came into contact with Lan Shuya’s expression, there was a strong sense of unwillingness in her eyes. However, when she thought of that possibility, her unwillingness immediately weakened. Even though she took a few steps forward, she cried and said, “Your Excellency, this matter has nothing to do with Miss Lan. It was all because of this servant.”
We couldn’t find the murderer just now, but why are there so many murderers now? Duan Sizheng felt that there was something hidden about this matter, “Tell me.”
Chun Lin immediately trembled and said, “The eldest young master is grateful to this servant, However, the eldest young master had always been unhappy with the fourth young lady, This servant knows that her status is low, Therefore, he only hoped that he could stay by the side of the eldest young master and serve him as a maidservant. “That’s why I saved Fourth Young Lady and used this favor to enter the Yun Clan. I stayed by Fourth Young Lady’s side. I hope that I can monitor Fourth Young Lady for Eldest Young Master. Fourth Young Lady and Eldest Young Master have accumulated grievances for a long time. I heard that I’m coming to another courtyard, so I specifically discussed with this servant to burn Fourth Young Lady to death. I just didn’t expect that Fourth Young Lady to survive.”
“It’s just …” she said, pausing for a moment. With a sad expression, There was a deathly silence in his eyes. “This servant has done so much for the eldest young master, The eldest young master, on the other hand, admired that brothel girl Chu Yun very much. Although this servant’s status is not good, But he was even more innocent than the brothel girl, For the sake of that brothel girl, He was even more unwilling to take this servant’s body. “This servant is unwilling to accept it. That’s why I set up the Eldest Young Master tonight. The Eldest Young Master burned the Fourth Young Lady to death. When I was happiest, this servant drugged the Eldest Young Master and this servant dressed up as Chu Yun. The Eldest Young Master really took my body as he wished. I just didn’t expect that this drug to be too violent and harm the Eldest Young Master’s life.”
“Then why did you implicate Fourth Young Lady in this matter? Where did you get your mask?” Although Duan Sizheng felt that it was indeed very difficult to guess the woman’s thoughts, he still continued to ask.
Chun Lin’s gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at Yun Xiao with anger. His eyes flashed with killing intent. “This servant hates the fourth girl. The eldest young master is already dead, so this servant naturally has to accompany the eldest young master. The eldest young master is already dead. He can’t see Yun Xiao dead, so even if this servant dies, I have to pull Yun Xiao along!” “As for the mask, because of my kindness towards the fourth young lady, she gave me quite a few rewards. I can naturally get a mask.”
“Then why are you confessing now?” Previously, Chun Lin had insisted that it was Yun Xiao who killed Yun Yang. In the blink of an eye, it was actually someone else. Of course, it surprised Yun Xiao.
‘”I’ve been by Fourth Young Lady’s side for so long. Although she promoted me to a first-class maid, she doesn’t trust me. Miss Lan is a pitiful person. This servant can’t bear to see Miss Lan being wronged.” After she finished her sentence, she suddenly smiled at the people around her and said, “Yunxiao, I curse you for not dying well!”
After she finished speaking, her face suddenly turned pale again. Finally, she looked at Lan Shuya once again and saw that Lan Shuya nodded at her. Only then did her body collapse softly.
“Not good, stop her!” When Duan Si sensed something was wrong, he shouted out this sentence. Unfortunately, it was already too late, and Chun Lin had already bit his tongue and killed himself.
Everyone in the room looked at the Spring Forest in the room in unison. Obviously, they did not expect things to turn out like this.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, accompanied by the shrill cries of the baby. The cries carried traces of grievance and fear. However, when they heard this voice, a trace of sympathy appeared in everyone’s cold hearts.
Everyone looked outside and naturally missed the strange look in Yun Xiao’s eyes.
